Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a sealing film for a solar battery containing an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer as a main component and to a solar battery prepared by using the sealing film and particularly relates to a sealing film for a solar battery having an excellent anti-yellowing property.
  • a solar battery generally has a configuration in which cells 4 for a solar battery, such as silicon power devices, are sealed with sealing films 3 A and 3 B, which are EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer) films, between a glass substrate as a front side transparent protective member 1 and a back side protective member (back cover) 2 , as illustrated in FIG. 1 .
  • sealing films 3 A and 3 B which are EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer) films, between a glass substrate as a front side transparent protective member 1 and a back side protective member (back cover) 2 , as illustrated in FIG. 1 .
  • EVA ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer
  • the front side transparent protective member 1 , the front side sealing film 3 A, the cells 4 for a solar battery, the back side sealing film 3 B, and the back side protective member 2 are layered in this order, heated and pressurized, and adhesively integrated by crosslinking and curing the EVA, to manufacture such a solar battery.
  • the EVA films for sealing which have maximum transparency and do not absorb or reflect incident sunlight and through which the sunlight almost passes, are desirable.
  • the benzophenone-based ultraviolet absorber is proposed in Patent Document 1 or 2, there is a situation in which, although stabilization effect is exhibited, the lives of the sealing films are shorter than those of the solar battery cells and, as a result, the life of the solar battery depends on the lives of the sealing films, and further stabilization is thus demanded for the proliferation of solar batteries.
  • an object of the present invention is to provide a sealing film for a solar battery which has excellent light resistance and heat resistance by preventing yellowing due to the influence of light or heat.
  • a sealing film for a solar battery according to the present invention is one in which 0.05-10 parts by weight of a hindered amine compound having a substructure represented by the following general formula (I):
  • R 5 represents C 1 -C 18 straight- or branched-chain alkyl which may be substituted by hydroxy or C 5 -C 8 cycloalkyl; and R 6 represents C 1 -C 20 alkyl).

  • a sealing film for a solar battery having excellent light resistance and heat resistance, in which the occurrence of yellowing or the like is remarkably suppressed even in its use for a long term can be provided. Furthermore, the sealing film for a solar battery can maintain a high ultraviolet ray absorption for a long term and suppress degradation of, e.g., cells included in a solar battery. Thus, a solar battery prepared by using such a sealing film for a solar battery is also excellent in light resistance and heat resistance.
  • FIG. 1 is a schematic explanation view of a general solar battery.

  • the vinyl acetate content is less than 10 parts by mass, there is a fear that processability is deteriorated, an obtained film becomes too much hard, and a degassing property is therefore deteriorated to more easily damage cells during manufacturing a solar battery.
  • the hindered amine-based compound having the substructure represented by the following general formula (I) is preferably used, the compound having the substructure represented by the following general formula (II) is preferred because of having excellent weather resistance, and the compound having the structure represented by the following general formula (III) or (IV) is particularly preferred because of exhibiting a remarkable stabilization effect:
